Leaving Tokyo
Saturday 30th March 2013
Last day in Tokyo today, and last full day in Japan of this trip. Breakfast in Roppongi, then checked out, and headed over to Ueno for the afternoon, where we had lunch, then met up with Andy. Towards the end of the afternoon we got the train to Narita airport, where we'd be staying in a hotel for the night before our flight with Chie's family.

L'Atelier Joel Robuchon - they have a bread shop at the side where we bought breakfast. We went here for dinner after we "officially" got married in October 2006.
